24 May 2011:

I reached an overlook where I took a short break which enjoying the view of the Poule (hen) of Hienghène. In the time I was there, I saw a Kanak mother and a kid on a walk, and an elderly white couple pull up in a car for a quick view. Seems like even tourist-heavy areas outside of Nouméa aren't that frequented by tourists. The beginnings of the famous cliffs of Linderalique are visible to the right of the photo.
